Chapter 662: Your mother's hairpin

Zhang Xi put the book on the table that he had been studying for quite a long time. After the wrongdoings of his father, the late King, were exposed, he decided to learn governance from the stretch. He also had left the path on which he was walking. 

Zhang Xi's loneliness increased too after Tianjie got entangled with Song Jia and then married her. His equation with the other brothers was not that well. So, he used to stay inside his chamber most of the time. 

"Pardon me for intrusion, Your Highness. The King is here to see you," the maidservant informed him. 

Zhang Xi quickly stood up from the floor chair when Xiaoming entered. Zhang Xi greeted him and kept his head down until Xiaoming asked him to relax. Xiaoming dismissed the maidservant from the chamber and asked Zhang Xi to take a seat. 

"Was Brother Zhang Xi reading about the governance?" Xiaoming asked as his eyes fell on the book on the table. 

"Yes, Your Majesty," Zhang Xi said.
